Hi,
I'm getting an error message every week and I can't seem to understand why
nor manage to fix it. Here it is:

#dmesg
[snip]
pid 54753 (locate.code), uid 65534 inumber 23557 on /tmp: filesystem full

# df -h
Filesystem     Size    Used   Avail Capacity  Mounted on

/dev/ar0s1e    7.7G    398M    6.7G     5%    /var

As you see there's 910MB free space in /tmp. Should be plenty to run the
weekly locate script?

# uname -a

03:20:02 CET 2008     root@host.domain.com:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/MYOWN  i386

Does anyone have a suggestion what I can do to fix this problem?

Thanks a lot!

Best,
Andy
